Preparing for the First Flight Checklist

RC airplanes are not toys. Please note this checklist is not intended to be a 

replacement for the content included in this manual. Although it can be used as a 

quick start guide, we strongly suggest you follow this checklist along with the rest 

of the instruction manual to help you gain important information to operate this 

RC aircraft successfully. This will help ensure you get the most fun out of your RC 

experience.

Remove and inspect contents.

Read EFLC1004 Charger instructions (page 9–11) prior to charging the included 

Li-Po batteries.

Read this instruction manual thoroughly.

Install the flight battery in the airplane (once it has been fully charged).

Bind aircraft to your transmitter (shown on page 15–17 of this manual).

Test the controls (shown on page 18–20 of this manual).

Familiarize yourself with the controls.

Find a suitable area for flying.

Flying Checklist

Please note this checklist is not intended to be a replacement for the content included 

in this instruction manual. Although it can be used as a quick start guide, we strongly 

suggest reading through this manual and other documentation included with the 

product completely before proceeding.

• Always turn the transmitter on first and set at least 2 feet away from the aircraft

• Plug the flight battery into the receiver and install the flight battery 

• Connect the flight battery into the power lead of the AR6400L receiver

• Allow the receiver to initialize and arm properly

• Fly the model

• Land the model

• Disconnect the flight battery from the receiver

• Always turn the transmitter off last

Battery Warnings and Guidelines

While the Celectra 4-port Battery Charger (EFLC1004) included with  

your 4-Site has been specifically designed to safely charge the included  

1S 3.7V 150mAh 12C Li-Po Battery (EFLB1501S), you MUST read the 

following safety instructions and warnings before handling, charging or using 

the Li-Po battery.

Note:  Li-Po batteries are significantly more volatile than 

the alkaline, Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries used in RC 

applications. All instructions and warnings must be 

followed exactly. Mishandling of Li-Po batteries can  

result in fire.

By handling, charging or using the included Li-Po battery you assume 

all risks associated with lithium batteries. If you do not agree with these 

conditions, return your complete 4-Site model in new, unused condition to 

the place of purchase immediately.

•   You must charge the included 1S 3.7V 150mAh 12C Li-Po battery in a safe area 

away from flammable materials.

•  Never charge the battery unattended. When charging the battery you should always 

remain in constant observation to monitor the charging process and react to 

potential problems that may occur.

• After flight, the battery must be cooled to ambient temperature before charging.

• You MUST use the included 4-port Celectra 1S 3.7V Li-Po Battery Charger 

(EFLC1004). Failure to do so may result in a fire causing personal injury and/or 

property damage. DO NOT use a Ni-Cd or Ni-MH charger. 

• If at any time during the charge or discharge process the battery begins to balloon 

or swell, discontinue charging or discharging immediately. Quickly and safely 

disconnect the battery, then place it in a safe, open area away from flammable 

materials to observe it for at least 15 minutes. Continuing to charge or discharge 

a battery that has begun to balloon or swell can result in a fire. A battery that 

has ballooned or swollen even a small amount must be removed from service 

completely.

• Store the battery at room temperature in a dry area for best results.

• When transporting or temporarily storing the battery, the temperature range should 

be from 40–120 degrees Fahrenheit. Do not store the battery or model in a car 

or direct sunlight whenever possible. If stored in a hot car, the battery can be 

damaged or even catch fire.

• Do not over-discharge the Li-Po flight battery. Discharging the battery too low can 

cause damage to the battery resulting in reduced power, duration or failure of the 

battery entirely.
